Patronage: how does it work?

Patronage is defined as ‘material support provided, without any direct consideration from the beneficiary, to a cause or an individual for the pursuit of activities in the public interest’. Cultural patronage is governed by Law No. 2003-709 of 1 August 2003 on patronage, known as the ‘Aillagon Law’.

  • I am a company or a foundation

Becoming a patron enables my company to benefit from a tax relief of up to 60 per cent of the donation amount, subject to a limit of 0.5 per cent of its turnover excluding VAT. Above this limit, the excess may give rise to tax relief over the following five financial years (Article 238 bis of the General Tax Code).

My sponsorship can take various forms depending on my preferences and resources: it can be financial, in the form of expertise (provision of staff, guidance, technical support, etc.), in kind consisting of material support from the company (provision of material, personnel or technical resources) or technological (e.g. supply of electricity).

  • I am a private individual

By becoming a patron, I am entitled to an income tax relief equal to 66 per cent of the amounts paid, subject to an annual limit of 20 per cent of my net taxable income. Any excess may also be carried forward to the following five financial years.
